Pittsburgh Beaten, 5-2, by Houston
The home crowd had a good time watching the Pittsburgh Ironmen and Houston Titans get after it.

Behind an impressive start by Adrian Houser, Houston beat Pittsburgh, 5-2. Houston pitcher Jordan Wicks got the win. He's now 5-4. Gregory Soto was tagged with the loss. Orion Kerkering was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 17 of 21 save opportunities.

Had Braxton Fulford not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Fulford hit a 2-run single. That made the score 4-2, in favor of the Titans.

"I'm happy we won," said Houser. "That's first and foremost. My goal is for the team to win the day I pitch, however it's done."

By defeating Pittsburgh, the 4th-place Titans improved to 49-51.
